Seismic changes in the labour market, the lack of affordable child care, and, most recently, the economic upheaval caused by the COVID-19 pandemic have made balancing the demands of work and family even more challenging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing on a wide range of cutting-edge social research, however, Nicole Meredith argues that there is in fact a best time in life to have a baby-a time that maximizes the likelihood of both family fulfillment and career success. The author considers not only the many roadblocks to picking the right time to have children, including societal and parental pressures as well as subtle (and not-so-subtle) media influences, but also how women can best resist those pressures to ensure that if they do choose to have children, it will indeed be at \"the best of times.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nicole Meredith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1772442038\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781772442038\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rock's Mills Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/14\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.44d","brand":"Nicole Meredith","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48519337607423,"sku":"9781772442038","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f106d2f5-bdf5-4a31-a163-869f8d662d13.jpg?v=1778737291","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-best-of-times-nicole-meredith-9781772442038","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
